Celebrity Big Brother

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

Saturday has always been listed as a date for an episode. Seeing how nothing was mentioned, I wouldn't be surprised if it was simply just one of those recap episodes. Like they do every year where the final group of people(usually the F3, but in this case I guess it's the F5) reflect on past moments in the season, and they show stuff that didn't air on TV.

I thought it might've been an eviction episode, but guess not. 2 hour show on Sunday, they're gonna do 3 evictions and the jury votes? Seems like alot to fit in.

I'm wondering if they have more than final 2. It just seems to be designed to keep the only real name on tv the longest.

I was thinking F3 too, but Julie said 3 evicted HGs on Sunday.

And it'd be way too uncontrollable if it's a final 3. Imagine on a live show, you have a 9 person jury with a F3 and end in a 4-4-1 tie. Or the insanely improbable 3-3-3 tie. Would be abit embarrassing, unless they go the Survivor route for the 4-4-1 tie(the other houseguest in the F3 votes for the winner)

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

I hope Brandi is the one to go on Friday.

Funny hearing Omarosas revelation. James threw HOH to Mark, they must be working together! As if it wasn't obvious? 7 people left, 4 women, 3 guys, they want a woman to win it, so why wouldn't James/Mark be together?

That music scene was funny. James randomly singing to Mark in the DR, and after all that, we just hear the BB voice telling Mark to stop singing (when Mark never sang anything) lol.

Guess I'll post it in this thread, but for anyone who watched BB19 and remembers Jess/Cody, just a spoiler on where they finished this season on the amazing race:

Spoiler

THEY WON

Redemption for them after that horrible BB19 season. And editing on Amazing Race was much better for Cody. BB liked making fun of him, but Amazing Race built him up like a machine (or as Jess calls it "Cyborg mode"). Apparently they're getting married too.

regarding the spoiler:

I haven't followed the season from start to finish but tuned in tonight knowing it was the finale. My friend told me Cody had proposed to Jess in some remote location, so I'm thinking it's probably AR related, and when they won I was waiting for him to drop to a knee. Didn't happen, but good for them on winning. Kinda sucks for the team with Hen who called for a check on the final challenge and had all 12 correct, but switched right before the official check. Ouch!

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

Surprised no Jess/Cody mentioning during BB given that Amazing Race is now over.


Tonights Double Eviction....wasn't expecting that 2nd half. Good that they got Brandi out, but Omarosa wins HOH and then James is the one gone(apparently because of a lie Brandi told earlier)!? He was my 2nd fave of the season next to Shannon. Now it's up to Ross to win this(which I don't think will happen since it seems like Shannon won't vote for him no matter what, and Metta probably will vote how she does).

That's an interesting twist to end the season. F5 carries out like normal, but it's basically a BB Canada triple eviction. F5 becomes F4, but once F4 happens, the HOH will vote out TWO HGs at once. In hindsight, I guess it's good(for other HGs) James was voted out, cause if he won the F5 HOH(which I'd guess is endurance), he gets to compete in F4 HOH as well.

Highlight of the episode was Julie asking Brandi on stage to say something mean about her(going back to Brandis failed game in the house where she wanted the HGs to say something mean about Julie).

Glad Brandi is gone, what a terrible human being and couldn't stand to look at her face with all the crap she has done to it.

James being gone has killed it now. I don't want any of them to win.

Omarosa would have been better off keeping James as I don't think he would have put her up.

Don't know if it's about him putting her up or just her wanting a female to win it. James gone means 3 women and 2 men. Ross is aligned with Marissa and Mark isn't a comp threat. If James stayed, you'd have James/Mark together and possibly Ross with them too.

Best move for Omarosa might've been Ari going up and being evicted. Though that's an all or nothing move. If Ari went up and she went home, best case scenario for Omarosa is a 2v2 battle(Ross/Marissa vs James/Mark) with her as the swing vote. Worst case is obviously those 4 staying together and just pick her off (which is probably a scenario she feels is more likely, especially if she suspects/knows about that groups F4 deal)

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

For most part tonight was a "never before seen" clip show, but it had some funny moments in it. The diary room clips which showed behind the scene clips, showing HGs actually interacting with producers and all their various demands (James has an issue with a beard trimmer, Shannon wants vegan cheese, Brandi wants alcohol, Ross unable to do a DR at 2am, Chuck having no idea what he wanted to ask). For me, that was best and most noteworthy part of the entire episode.

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

So, Marissa ends up winning this whole thing?

Don't think she was best(or in top 3) of the season, but I think the whole "want a female to win the season" stuff had big impact on this. Ross no doubt played better game than she did.

That jury segment was so nerve wracking. Live TV, not knowing if someone would completely mess up and/or just have something crazy happen. A wrong vote, someone accidentally revealing their vote, or bigger(like jury talking about their vote during the voting itself). Metta...he actually just randomly voted for someone to win. Can you imagine if Ross won 5-4 with Metta voting for Ross?

I never picked up on Ross even saying this word so much, but everyone else did. Kind of sad I didn't. Would've been so much funnier if I did.

(even funnier, this exact scene aired February 25th 1999)

Of all BB seasons, I'd rank it in my "2nd tier". Nowhere near as good as the best like BB7,8,10 and so on, but better than ones like 16 and 18. Though that's probably recency bias. Might change by time BB20 starts. Thankfully it's MUCH better than BB19(which I put in my bottom 3).

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

Shannon seems like a legitimate BB player, she's scheming, she's socializing, she's scamming, and still staying low key. When MWP came to her and offered himself up to be on the block, and she wanted him to promise not to open his gift basket... that was great lol, he was offering her the gift of being up, and she made him offer up more.

I hope she doesn't overplay because if anyone catches on she'll be a target real quick, even if they're trying to do some girl alliance that never works, and every season all the girls think it's a great idea anyway.

sneaky pick: funny girl that opted out of the gift opening, she's clever

I demand credit!

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

I demand credit!

My post a few posts above yours...

I think a fan wins this season because of how clueless others could be about strategic elements of game.

F2 had 2 superfans in it. So I should get credit too lol.

Re: Celebrity Big Brother

lol, the final 7 houseguests were on The Talk today. This picture sums up Celebrity Big Brother PERFECTLY. It wasn't a staged photo, this literally happened during the show(and even Julie just suddenly turned to commercial break lol).

Some interesting notes from that interview:
-Mark would've taken Ross to F2(and Ross would've taken Mark)
-Ross doesn't want to say it, but he basically said he should've won
-Ross(and even to lesser extent Julie) seemed surprised at Shannon given how she's a BB fan yet was so bitter afterwards
-James changed his vote to Marissa simply because Ross took credit for winning an HOH that James threw to him(though in Ross' defense, I'm not sure if he even knew at the time it was thrown to him)

And a line from Marissa which makes lots of sense and sums up how the show ended. She won because she played Celebrity Big Brother. Ross was playing Big Brother. Her gameplay this season was catered towards that. For me, that makes me think about her gameplay and winning differently.

Marissa won because she's a girl, same a Nicole the season before last.

Ross was one of the girls though!

Also, pfft Nicole earned that win
